Read the labels of all food and beauty products; remembering that the ingredients are listed in order by their volume as contained in the product. If you are unable to pronounce the ingredients, chances are you don’t want them in, or on, your body. Your skin is the largest organ of absorption and excretion so keep it clean, healthy and supple with simple products that contain pure ingredients.

Lavender Oil

The many contributions are as varied as the oils, making it difficult to single one out. But lavender is rare in that it is anti-inflammatory and balancing (normalizing oiliness) and is suitable for every body type. Furthermore, it reduces stress and enhances libido. It is a pow­erful wrinkle reducer, antiseptic and scar eliminator. Like bergamot, it can be used as an anti-depressant and is also great as a deodorant. It relieves sunburn and restores skin’s elasticity.

Note: Drop 4 drops of lavender oil into a cup of cool water. Dip a washcloth in the solution, wring out the excess liquid, and use as a soothing eye compress.

Rose Oil

Not all roses are the same, due to centuries of cultivation of hybrid species. Young Living Oils use Bulgarian Rose Oil with a frequency of 320 Hz, the highest in the plant kingdom.

It is a powerful releaser of HGH, a cell rejuvenator and is also suitable for all skin types. Bulgarian scientists have demonstrated that Bulgarian Rose Oil can reduce high blood pressure and heart arrhythmias.
